need som help getting .slideDown and .slideUp working in wordpress theme

Rather than writing such specific code and calling specific IDs to show/hide, you can abstract your code to work a lot more flexibly.

Houdini is a script I wrote that does what you're trying to accomplish: http://cferdinandi.github.io/houdini/

Here's the JavaScript:

$(function () {
    $('.collapse-toggle').click(function(e) { // When a link or button with the .collapse-toggle class is clicked
        e.preventDefault(); // Prevent the default action from occurring
        var dataID = $(this).attr('data-target'); // Get the ID of the target element
        $(dataID).toggleClass('active'); // Add or remove the '.active' class from the target element
    });
});

Here's the CSS:

.collapse-toggle {
    display: inline;
    visibility: visible;
    cursor: pointer;
}

/* If JavaScript is enabled, hide the collapsed element */
.collapse {
    max-height: 0;
    overflow: hidden;
    opacity: 0;
    /*  Add animation when content expands and collapses */
    -webkit-transition: opacity 0.35s ease;
       -moz-transition: opacity 0.35s ease;
        -ms-transition: opacity 0.35s ease;
         -o-transition: opacity 0.35s ease;
            transition: opacity 0.35s ease;
}

/*  When collapsed element has the .active class, show it 
 *  Uses max-height instead of display: none to allow for 
 *  CSS3 animations, which don't work on display values. */
.collapse.active {
    max-height: 9999em;
    opacity: 1;
}

And here's the HTML:

<p><a class="collapse-toggle" data-target="#collapse1" href="#">Click to Show</a></p>

<div class="collapse" id="collapse1">
    Now you see me, now you don't.
</div>

You simply apply the collapse-toggle class to anything you want to trigger the hide/show effect, and then use the data-target attribute to specify the ID of the thing you'll hide/show. Wrap the hidden content in a div with the collapse class and make sure the ID matches.

This approach lets you write the JS once, and then apply it as many times as you need to in your HTML without adding addition scripts.
